You will continue to Kent C. Dodds. TrustMyCourse does not sell this course.

A course organised around four layers of testing (static analysis, unit, integration and end-to-end) rather than around a single tool, so the reasoning transfers between frameworks. Eight modules cover mocking, static analysis, DOM Testing Library, Jest configuration, React component tests, Cypress setup and Node backend testing. Sold in three tiers containing three, six and eight modules respectively, with video available to stream or download and a thirty-day guarantee.

Who it is for

JavaScript developers who write some tests but have no framework for deciding which kind to write.

Recorded from the provider’s published description of the course.

What the course covers

Summarised by TrustMyCourse from public course information. Wording is our own, not the provider’s.

  1. Fundamentals of Testing in JavaScript

    Building the testing primitives by hand before adopting a framework that hides them.

  2. JavaScript Mocking Fundamentals

    What a mock actually is, written from scratch rather than through a library's API.

  3. Static Analysis Testing JavaScript Applications

    The layer that catches problems without running anything: linting, formatting and type checking.

  4. DOM Testing Library

    Testing any JavaScript framework through the DOM the user actually interacts with.

  5. Configure Jest for Testing JavaScript Applications

    Getting the test runner configured for a real project rather than a tutorial one.

  6. Test React Components with Jest and React Testing Library

    Component testing that asserts on behaviour rather than implementation detail.

  7. Install, Configure and Script Cypress

    End-to-end testing for web applications, including the setup work.

  8. Test Node.js Backends

    Applying the same four-layer thinking to server code.

    Artificial Intelligence

    CS50's Introduction to Artificial Intelligence with Python

    Harvard's AI course, published free as OpenCourseWare. Seven lecture topics work through search, knowledge representation, uncertainty, optimisation, machine learning, neural networks and language, with Python projects attached to each. It is explicitly a follow-on rather than a first course: the stated prerequisite is CS50x or roughly a year of Python experience, and the material assumes the learner can already write and debug their own programs.

    Programming

    CS50's Introduction to Computer Science

    Harvard's introductory computer science course, taught through eleven weeks that begin in Scratch and move into C, then Python, SQL and web development with Flask. It spends unusually long on what happens underneath a program, covering arrays, memory, pointers and data structures, before reaching higher-level languages, and ends with a self-directed final project. The course materials are free; a certificate is a separate paid option through edX.
